We do this by connecting branding, marketing and communications together to provide a strong brand strategy for your business. The number one goal is always knowing your customer and your customer knowing you in return.
Alana Kilgore, President of 1414Marketing LLC, has experience leading the communications and branding department for Ceres Terminals, now SSA Marine, North America's top marine terminal operator with locations spread throughout North America and Canada. Alana understands the ins and outs of the maritime industry and the importance of having a strong brand presence that resonates with stakeholders and partners. By combining firsthand experience in maritime and logistics with proven marketing expertise, we position businesses for long-term success in a way most agencies can’t match.

Ceres Terminals Brand Transformation
Ceres Terminals was a terminal operations company seeking to expand its footprint across the United States and Canada. Beginning with a full rebrand, Alana helped the organization showcase its people-focused culture through a bold new website, social media presence, and cohesive visual identity.
This brand transformation strengthened the company’s market position and ultimately supported its successful acquisition by Blackstone Financial (SSA Marine) within three years.
I had a great experience working with Alana and the team at 1414 Marketing. Alana and I worked together at a major marine terminal operator, where she led marketing and branding, so I already knew she deeply understands the transportation, port, and logistics world, and that experience really shows in her work.
1414 Marketing built the website and handled the SEO for Trade Lane Talent, and they absolutely delivered. The site clearly reflects my brand, speaks directly to the supply chain audience, and presents a professional, polished presence that resonates with industry decision makers. It’s not generic marketing, it’s tailored to an industry they truly understand.
If you’re in transportation, logistics, or any complex B2B space and want a marketing partner who actually “gets it,” I highly recommend Alana and 1414 Marketing.
